"In recent years "personalized" ring-back tones have become globally popular"

Firstly, the section associated with this reads like a press release. Secondly, "globally popular" is a very vague phrase. For example, here in the UK I reckon under 1% of people have them - and a good thing to if you ask me... 86.132.138.248 (talk) 22:00, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

UK ringing tone

By using a computer with Sound Forge, i have determined that the two tones mixed for the UK ringing tone are 550 Hz and 500 Hz.
